Can you believe it’s August already?
We are running half day Summer pony camps all through August at Dunbyrne Equestrian in Kildare.
Our camps run Tuesdays to Friday. Our morning camps run from 9.30-12.30. Our afternoon camps run from 2-5pm. Riders aged six or over of all levels are welcome
*for beginners aged ten and under we recommend riders to come for a 30 minute try it session costing 20 euros before booking camp. The reason for this is 1) it allows parents to see if a child enjoys horse riding before committing to a camp and 2) it means that the child can attend camp without having to have a parent or a guardian aged 16 or over accompany them the first day of camp to lead them.
Camps include horse riding, horse and pony care, arts and crafts and games. On the Friday riders will perform a riding display and parents and family are more than welcome to come and watch.
Children must be at least aged six or over to attend camp. We will provide riding boots, helmets and back protectors for use during camp for new riders. Riders must wear long sleeved tops without a hood, thick leggings or tracksuit bottoms (no shorts!) and given its Ireland a waterproof jacket an sun cream are always wise to bring as you will probably need one or the other. Long hair must be tied back and jewellery aside from stud earrings must not be worn for safety reasons.
What to bring - suncream, waterproof jacket, a snack and a drink.
Camps cost 120 euros and a 30 euro deposit via online booking is required. Full payment of balance must be made the week before camp. Deposits are not refundable. Camp payments after one week before camp are not refundable.
